Camshaft Position Sensor

Ok,

Had the SES light come on again (and went off a day later), took advice of one of the posters on this forum and had Autozone plug in their computer before I take it to get fixed.

It came up a 'Camshaft Position Sensor, Bank 1.'

Anyone have any input on this? Similar message? I believe it has to do with the emissions on the car. 2001 525i.

Thanks for your replies.

Re: Camshaft Position Sensor

Unfortunately, this is what you get from 'generic' scan tools. The only 'banks' BMW refers to on M50's is 1-3 & 4-6 cyl's. Your engine has an intake AND an exhaust Cam Sensor. Both fail but the Exhaust more often than the Intake though the Exhaust is easier to replace [it's on the R/F of the cyl. head].......either throw a dart or get a MoDiC or GT1 Fault Survey to be sure what's actually failed.
